I have some Lela Rose heels from last year & I get compliments on them all the time. They aren't uncomfortable and they are still holding up. I like Payless b/c a lot of their stuff is vegan. However, I am not loving this season's designs. Several of those items are downright ugly.

see, i find none of these are doing it for me.
Even from the pictures you can tell the quality is shabby of pretty much all of it. I'd rather spend a few extra dollars on footwear and get quality and a certain timeless-ness than buy something that is "fair" priced just because it has a designer's name slapped on.
